In the polished mirror
She knows herself,
At once she is the knower and the known,
Insofar as she reveals to none other than herself
Her own inner Form.
At once she is the hidden and the revealed,
Insofar as her essence always exceeds
Her own knowable Form.
At once she is the beginning and the end,
Insofar as she returns to where she emerged,
Her own timeless Form.

At once she is the beginning and the end,
